Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Possibly one of the most comfortable stays in HCMC, mainly because: - Staff were mostly polite and greeted us warmly. Lobby concierge was very welcoming and even upgraded us to a 3-room apartment and helped all of us sign up to CapitaLand's Ascott's membership. Witnessed that their guards and bell hops were always friendly and helping guests (including plenty of long-term stays) carry their heavy golf sets up and down the lobby stairs.
- Our 136sqm three-bedroom apartment had their own fully-equipped kitchen with an updated French door refrigerator, washer-dryer, separate living and dining areas and even a study and a balcony!
- The compound has its own K-market (an established Korean supermarket chain) that is open till 10pm for grocery needs.
- Though location was in town, its large compound with much greenery and outdoor play areas along the sheltered walkways connecting the two buildings, as well as the semi-Olympic-size pool and al fresco breakfast area beside the pool made it feel like a resort.
- Price was very reasonable e.g. even for their larger Premier 110sqm two-bedroom apartments, it costed less than 40usd per room within.
Only gripes: - Breakfast selection was a little limited, and not that tasty. Probably fine since we recommend that it's better to save your stomach's capacity for some authentic Michelin Bib Gourmand Vietnamese breakfast dishes such as those from Phở Lệ and Hủ Tiếu Hồng Phát some 15-minute ride away from the hotel!
- Wanted to skip breakfast on the second day but still wanted to get two coffees to go but... the breakfast reception manager questioned us sternly. Weird and a little rude.

Check into this service apartment with another 2 families.
Mine is a 1 bedroom apartment located on the 6th floor. The room has a small kitchen, a large new fridge with cold water dispenser and a new washer & dryer. There is also a large drinking water container placed on top of the shoe cabinet. So you can have as much water as you need!
The bathroom is located outside the bedroom. Place is large & comfortable. Everything is working. Tried the washer & dryer, all good.
Bathroom is good with strong water pressure ( a plus ).
There are free drinks & coffee at the lobby with scheduled free shuttle bus to nearly major markets.
The road outside the apartment would be jammed during morning & evening peak hours.
The is an on-site swimming pool, restaurant & mini-market. Do note that as the kitchen is located at the 2nd floor on top of the mini mart, your order of the food at the ground floor restaurant would take some time to arrive, as the waiters need to climb up & down the stairs.
There are spas & cafes just outside the apartment & is walking distance to my favourite Crab restaurant at 94 Định Thien Hoang.
However, I deducted 1 star because the binds at the window in my unit is damaged & not working.

What an amazing experience. Yes a little bit of a walk from main centre even though district one , but most places accessible by foot in 30 minutes.
We chose this accommodation as it offers 3 bedroom apartments perfect for family of 5 .
Staff are friendly sky and helpful . 24 hour reception is useful plus kitchen that opens till 10pm.
Room on arrival was spotless ! Even the cutlery drawer had perfectly aligned forks and knives , and every day our dishes were washed … wow !
On-site restaurant is great. Yes a little small but we actually prefer to eat outside by the pool anyway . Buffet is different every day and great value ! Vietnamese milk coffees are included too yum !
Pool is a great size and the resort really does feel like you are miles away from a city given nothing really overlooks into it.
For us this was the perfect location for our stay , so good we cancelled our other planned accommodation and will be staying here again next week .
Oh , cannot forget , the gym is one of the best hotel set up gyms one will come across!! Dumb bells, strength machines, cardio machines all available .
If any improvements could be made , I would like restaurant staff to have greater awareness of what gluten free options are and why someone needs to know this if they are coeliac . Also to see some soap available by the pool side toilet . There is another toilet in reception very close and super clean , but the poolside toilet also seems to be used regularly by kitchen staff in addition to guests .
All up a very nice stay and of course , we will be back

Attractive, spacious apartments which are equipped to a high standard: a family could happily live here for an extended period. Reception staff are extremely helpful and have excellent English and communication skills; special thanks to Justin and Brian for making our stays so comfortable. We actually stayed here 3 times on our recent holiday to Vietnam, returning to HCMC after trips to different parts of the country. You can walk from Somerset to the main sights or Justin will call you a taxi. Taxis were reliable and great value. Lovely pool area and a good restaurant and supermarket on site. We came here because we’d previously stayed at Somerset apartments in Hanoi and found them to be ideal. These places are also sensibly priced, particularly if you are in a family group and want different bedrooms: we find the apartments are a good option for this sort of thing vs having to book multiple hotel rooms. The units have proper kitchens and laundry facilities so you can really get yourselves refreshed again after a trip into the wilds. It’s great to have the space of an apartment but with all of the benefits of a hotel: 5-star hotel reception, pool, gym, lounge, etc.. We would definitely return!

Excellent service - concierge and cleaning staff are friendly and accommodating. My stay here was very smooth and pleasant because of their diligence. Highly recommend staying here for any travellers passing through HCM. Service apartment linen change available 3x per week and visitors can get discount at the Morico restaurant on level 1. Good value for money.

A hotel that does not really live up to its five stars: rooms that are certainly comfortable and quiet, but without any style, dilapidated furniture, a breakfast that borders on mediocrity (very little choice, and a number of very limited tables); the hotel is certainly secure but despite the fact that it is located "8 minutes" from the city center, you must first walk through absolutely poorly lit and very questionable streets before reaching the business district. .. unless you take a taxi every time, which means having to deal with traffic jams (and the endless chatter of the drivers). In short, to escape!

The 5 of us stayed at Somerset HCM for weeks. It was a nice serviced apartment. Each unit has its own washer/dryer which enabled us to conveniently do our own laundry. The unit was clean and roomy. Breakfast is pretty simple, good if you're in a hurry. There is a convenient K-Mart inside the premise and lots of eateries within walking distance. One suggestion to MANAGEMENT: Draw a Pickleball Ball Court on existing Tennis Court to accommodate Pickleball Lovers since Pickleball Ball is a fast-growing sport. The PB lines would entice pickleball fans to choose to stay here. Our group certainly would because of that accommodation.

Somerset service apartments HCM main. (Note there are 4 Somersets in Ho Chi Minh area). We booked a 3 bedroom appartment - family of 6 adults.
Apartments are well maintained, neat and clean. Kitchen facilities included cooktop, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine/dryer. Wide screen TVs in living room and master bedroom. Master bedroom has a bathroom ensuite and the other 2 bedrooms - share a bathroom. Breakfast place is next to the pool downstairs - rather small, but fair and adequate. Nice sized pool. There is also a well stocked convienience store.

We stayed at this hotel for one night before heading to Dalat. Got the recommendation from my friend and it did not disappoint.
Stayed in 2 bedroom executive and we loved the room. Fully equipped with kitchen, fridge and washing machine. The room is clean, spacious and it has been reburbished. I need not use any adaptor as the rooms provide same socket in Singapore.
The breakfast area is small but sufficient. Particularly love the hot soup noodles. There is also a K Mart in the hotel which you can get food and drinks if you arr hungry in the night. It is open till 12 midnight.
The reception staff are friendly and very helpful. They will recommend nearby eateries as we wanted to try local food. Overall, we find the stay very comfortable and highly recommend if you are travelling to HCMC.

We stayed as a large family group across multiple rooms. The rooms were clean, spacious and worked really well to be able to rest in after busy days (washing machine included)! Upon our arrival we were greeted by one of the hosts Justin. He became our 'go to' person. He was extremely attentive, booked tours, experiences and dinner for us. Recommended certain traditional foods to try and even came out with birthday cake singing happy birthday on one of our birthdays. We are very appreciative for all of the extra work he put in because it meant as a large group we could just 'turn up'. The pool area and restaurant was a great area to relax in and the staff here were also very attentive. A convenient mini mart was within the resort and all open until late. I would definitely stay there again and couldn't recommend highly enough.
